From Raids to Resistance: Dr. Manuel Pastor on LA’s Immigrant Power
Tamarindo is delighted to welcome back Dr. Manuel Pastor who directs the Equity Research Institute at USC. His research is generally focused on issues of the economic, environmental and social conditions facing low-income urban communities – and the social movements seeking to change those realities. In recognition of his impactful work, in 2024, Dr. Pastor was named by the Los Angeles Times as one of the region’s most significant civic leaders in their inaugural series, L.A. Influential.
Today, we’re reflecting on the impact of the ICE raids, the truth about immigrants in Los Angeles, and why this Administration is so obsessed with us. We also talk about how it is going to take all of us to stay involved as we support the organizations and movements that are determined to push back.
Dr. Pastor also gave us some suggested organizations for our listeners to follow and consider donating to, including:
CHIRLA:https://www.chirla.org/get-involved/donate-support/
Community Coalition: https://action.cocosouthla.org/donate
LAANE: https://laane.org/
Million Voters Project: https://millionvotersproject.org/
California Calls: https://www.cacalls.org/
